that one year has not elapsed since
it was in condition to be connect
ed by one and half miles Of pike.
All his talk of the formation oil
a new county out here is a hallu-
cination Of his own mind, as moth.
ing is thought or said about it
here, except in jocular way.
1t is not true that the people of
Bald Knob or Flat Creek refused
to hear the speakers sent out to
discuss the railroad proposition.
No one received a more careful or
attentive hearing than Mr.. Chinn
or Mr.. Cromwell.
The only trouble about the
whole matter is that Bald Knob
and Flat Creek were the only pre-
cincts in the whole county where
the question was argued on both
sides.
We have to say, in this connec-
ton, that the proposition of the
railroad submitted to the people
was susceptible to just and adverse
criticism, and if these criticisms
could have reached the people
hhey would not have given as large
vote as they did in its favor.
MIR. Miles says we called the
people Of Frankfort liars, thieves
and robbers. He cannot name a
single gentleman that made use Of
such epithets. The hardest and
most vindictive words used by any
one in the canvas came from the
gentleman's own lips. There are
in Frankfort. as in every other
city, a lot of beer-guzzlers, bar
room loafers, and curbstone pol
iticians, who believe it to be their
duty to insult every man from the
country who did not concur in
their views. Some of these may
have had applied to them the
words quoted. No others heard
it. We discussed the matter with
several gentlemen from Frankfort
and heard not a vile word. If
Mr.. NJ, in that wordy ARRAY on
St. Clair street, heard any thing

HARP. KY, Aug. 4. 1887.

I1AKf, n.y., mug. Z, 1907
Editor Roundabout:
In concluding our reply to Mr..
Miles letter of the IS ult., we wish
to state that our only motive is to
correct the impression made by
the Misrepresentation and the
erroneous conclusions of that gen.
tleman.
These Misrepresentation and
errors are calculated to mislead
the citizens of our country who
are unacquainted with the county
finances and affairs, as we'll as
those who are unacquainted with
the county and her people, but
who are readers Of the RoUNDA
BOUT.
Mr.. Miles misrepresents us;
vilifies us; lets crop out the covert
malice he has for us; and says that
we must not get offended, as no
offense was intended.
He says he has the right to
"speak out in school" because he
is more than the average taxpayer.
Why has he that right more
than the man who pays tax upon
ten dollars worth Of property?
Is he any better mentally.
morally, physically Does he
occupy any more space? Does he
help improve the social conditions
of the people more than the other?
Thank God! we have one glorious
law in America that does not
allow one man to pay more tax
than another. If pay tax on ten
dollars the State protects my
right to it. If Mr.. Miles pays tax
on one hundred thousand dollars,
the State protects him in his right
to hold and enjoy it.
Mr.. Miles says: II claim my
money has not been properly
handled" How came it his money?
He paid it to the State and coun-
ty, does it not belong to them?
In an ordinary business transaction,
The Frankfort roundabout. [volume] (Frankfort, Ky.) 1882-1908, 1887-08-27
Come Early and Make Your Selection.

where Mr.. Miles pays debt, does
he claim the right to say ''mD
money" after it has passed into
the hands Of his creditor? Is it no,
an unjustifable assumption. OH the
part of Mr.. Miles, to claim the
right to speak out in school, to
the exclusion Of others in this
matter. We claim that he does
not know how it should be handled
so as to inure to the best interests
Of the people, and should not
arrogate to himself rights that do
not belong to him. Mr.. Miles
pays but poor tribute to the mag
istrates of his section when he
says they so catered to Bald Knob
as to make undue appropriations to
aid that precinct.
Bald Knob and Benson did not
elect or select the magistrates OF
other portions of the county.
There was no reason why the
magistrates in the other portions
Of the county should ''cat7" to
the influences of either Bald Knob
or Benson. 1t is not true that
they did so. The only reason Mr..
Miles gives for the assertion is that
they (the magistrates gave $40, :
COS. 10 to the three precincts OF
Bald Knob, Benson and Fiat
Creek. "
This is not true, for Peaks Mill
and Bridgeport each gets a por-
ton of the appropriations.
Suppose it to be true. Mr.. NJ.
says this has been done for twenty
years past, and, of course, twenty
times that amount which is three
hundred and thirty.two thousand
one hundred and three dollars and
twenty cents. Now there is not
one tenth of this amount in i'm
provement in all this section.
What has become of the money?
Mr.. Miles is mistaken. These
appropriations were never made.
From a careful reading of his
letter. one would suppose his own
section had never been aided from
The Frankfort roundabout. [volume] (Frankfort, Ky.) 1882-1908, 1887-08-27

the public treasury. Upon exam
lining the county records. we fine
that the City of Frankfort had al
appropriation Of So, 800 in the
wooden bridge, SII,5oo in the
iron bridge across Benson, So, ooc
for road running up the hill from
town, an appropriation for iron
bridge at mouth of the Devil
Hollow, and several smaller ones,
making an aggregate larger than
the one of which he complains.
We do not mention these to
make an invidious comparison. but
simply to show that his memory
is short in reference to things at
home.
These improvements were need
ed, the appropriations were made,
the political power of Bald Knob
was not catered to, and nobody
grumbled nor will grumble. But
all this was done before Bald
Knob received one cent in appro
priations.
His indecent and unnecessary
fling about the pauper condition
Of these precincts is so intensely
absurd, so unworthy the mind that
conceived it, the hand that wrote
it, that we pass it by in silence.
Mr.. Miles has but poor men,
Dry, or has drawn SO largely on
Joe Mulhattan for facts, that he
but eXCites the ridicule of his
readers.
About two months ago he, in
company with Hon. VIM. Lind
say and r. X. Mcclure, paid a
visit to Elmville, in the eastern
end of the county.
Mr.. M. was so surprised to see
the country out there so much i'm
proved that he gave vent to his en-
thusiasm in the ROUNDABOUT, and
urged that one and one half miles
Of pike be completed so as to con-
meet Elmville with Frankfort. In
the letter of the 23d of July he says
he has been urging this PROPOSE
ton for forty years, forgetting
The Frankfort roundabout. [volume] (Frankfort, Ky.) 1882-1908, 1887-08-27

like the words he gives, it was be-
cause he was where he did not be-
long.
What we have written is for
the purpose of showing that we
are not so wholly dead to sensibil-
ity as not to ''kick and squirm"
when we are villi6ed and abused
without cause.

Nor set down aught in malice"
